Carib sports for example you deposit $200 they give you $200 for a total of $400 in your account you bulid that account up to $2000 you want a payout they will take $2000 - the $200 they gave you your account now has $1800 in it and you can withdraw all $1800 if you wish.

A sticky bonus is a credit for betting purposes only. It can never be withdrawn.

It sits in your account and you can bet it - and therefore win more than you would have without it - but you can never withdraw it.

If you lose it then that's fine and life goes on.

There are strategies to maximize a sticky bonus - very similar to maximizing a freeplay - but it is obviously not as good as a cash bonus.

Carib and Betcom are a couple examples of books that offer sticky bonuses. I'll think of more.

So a sticky is best used if you max bet with your first bet?

Sticky bonuses are fake bonuses really. I notice Carib's offer does not seek to make the fact it is a sticky very obvious. Very poor ... any decent book should not be into that kind of cunning stunts.

Yes if you get a sticky bonus bet the whole amount 200+200=400

bet 400 to win 363 then if you cashed out you would have been risking 200 to win 363 on a straight bet

So its a bonus you can not withdrawl ever? Doesnt' sound like a good bonus to me. Thank you for the answers.

Since when does Betcom have stickies? I've always gotten cash from them.

Just a little housekeeping note: Betcom (and other books in the former Grand Central Group) used to have these sticky bonuses but, since being bought out by VIP, it doesn't appear that they do any more.

Thanks for the clarification Mud.
